Risk factors and mediation role of sleep quality for depression in cognitively frail older adults: a cross-sectional study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: Aimed to investigate the risk factors associated with depression in community-dwelling older adults with cognitive frailty and to examine the mediating role of sleep quality in the relationship between activities of daily living (ADL) and depression. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using convenience sampling, enrolling older adults with cognitive frailty from six communities in Beijing from July 2023 to December 2023. Cognitive frailty was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) alongside with the Fried Frailty Phenotype, while depressive symptoms were measured with the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors influencing depression, and mediation analysis was employed to explore the mediating effect of sleep quality on the relationship between ADL and depression. Results: Among the 529 elderly participants with cognitive frailty, 128 (24.2%) were found to exhibit depressive symptoms. Multivariate logistic regression identified ADL [Mild Dependence: OR = 176.729 (95% CI 32.427-963.172), Conclusion: Dependence in ADL, loneliness, and poor sleep quality are potential risk factors of depression for cognitive frailty in aging adults. Moreover, sleep quality was found to mediate the relationship between ADL dependence and depressive symptoms.
